Barcelona!

Well i'm all booked up for a week in Barcelona at the end of august and i am so looking forward to it. Its never been somewhere i've been that fussed about going to but the more i look at the place online the more and more i fall in love with it. I much prefer holidays where i visit cities than spending my week at the beach, i tried that a few years ago at Palma, Majorca and i hated it so much! I enjoyed the warm weather but it was tacky (we were right next to Magaluf) and to me it was just a really warm version of blackpool.

One of the first things i looked at was when i found out i was going was of course Barcelona Street style! I've got to know what to expect so i can plan what i am going to wear on my holidays!

Last week was the final exhibition for my college course and it was an amazing night. I started my course back in the last week of august and i must say its been the most stressful 9 months of my life. I've worked myself to the bone having to work in various different areas of art i hadn't experienced before such as fashion, ceramics, textiles, 3d design and graphics. Specialising in photography i have worked on a number of weekly/fortnightly projects allowing me to experiment in genres of photography I haven't done so before. This course has defiantly taught me a lot about myself both as a photographer and as a person and I really am going to miss it.

These photographs are from the opening night of my exhibition which i attended with my mum, dad, grandma (who was the subject of my documentary project) and my boyfriend. A week later the exhibition was taken down and i was given my final grade, i now hold the qualification of a UAL Foundation Diploma In Photography grade Distinction.

Newcastle.

A little while ago a friend of mine posted a few images on her blog of Newcastle back in the 1980s/1990s. I decided to have a look through the archive a few days ago and was blown away about how much Newcastle has changed and what parts of it i actually remember! I just had to share these images with you!
